I own a pair. There great to ride in. Warm, protective and chicks dig em.
I guess if your insecure about your sexuality, you should probably not get a pair.

Having said that, I would not wear them as part of my wardrobe; to go out to a bar in, or a friends house, etc. UNLESS I was on my scoot . It is equipment, like gloves, helmets, eyewear, etc.

Here 'ya go, all 17 pages, 168 replies, and 2512 reads. Hope you're not "language" sensitive.
Stays pretty normal for the first few pages, then the gay stuff starts and feathers get ruffled.

Does Santa Claus wear chaps?

I remember the words to that Christmas carol... "Don we now our GAY apparel."

Strange, from what I can tell on that thread, the ones against chaps seam to be the ones that have the less wind in front of them.
